| Anyone Here Have Atma-Sphere Amps? Thanx twodolfins. I am certainly going to use them with ESLs. Good luck in finding your MA-1s! | |
| Blackbird / SME Go on Amazon and search for Technics Head shell weight. One should do it. If your resonance frequency winds up too low you can shave parts of the weight off with a Dremel tool to get it right 8-10 Hz. get the Hi FI News test record. | |
| My experience adding subwoofers to 2 channel 4 JL Audio Fathom V2. That should scare your neighbors to death. | |
| Bass management with stand alone preamps Atmasphere, I think you are confusing room correction with bass management. Bass management supplies cross over points, slopes and outputs for sub woofers. Room control without careful woofer set up and acoustic management in the room just shifts ... | |
| Bass management with stand alone preamps esthlos13, yes Trinnov does 8, 16 and 32 channel units using the same system. The Amethyst is the only two channel unit they make. They make a stand alone room control unit but the Amethyst adds a lot of important features like digital bass manage... | |
| Class A Solid State Sound I have heard great examples of both types. It is interesting that Atma-sphere amps have been forgotten in this discussion. They are class A OTLs Tube amps and many say better than any type of class A SS amp.They all get hot so why not have a littl... | |
| Class A Solid State Sound It all comes down to the way the amp sounds into a specific speaker and the only way to know that is to hook them up and have a listen. You can make assumptions all day long and many of them will prove right. But, assumptions are the mother of all... | |
| Possible turntable upgrade.... Actually noromance you can kick the stand under a SOTA and as long as you do not kick the stand out from under it will continue along as if nothing happened. But, not only is it insensitive to this abuse it is also insensitive to everything else t... | |
| Speaker of the Century Award Goes To .... I am 65 and can still hear 18,000 Hz just fine. I do not normally play at 110 db but I do have a sound level meter and the system will go that loud w/o distortion. A comfortable loud volume is 95 db. Tweek, properly set up Acoustat 2+2s with sub w... | |
| Question about background noise Simao excuse me for not answering your question. Any sound you hear is coming from the vinyl. There are varying qualities of vinyl. Many record companies recycle the vinyl and it always picks up impurities along the way but Virgin vinyl is more ex... | |
| Blu-ray to RCA or Balanced Just get a Mcintosh MVP901 then you can forget about getting another one for a long time. It has Balanced outputs and also has USB inputs so you have a way in for computer audio using the 901's DAC. | |
| Possible turntable upgrade.... Stringreens, The Linn's suspension is not damped at all so the Q is very low. It is very tonearm sensitive. If you put too light a tone arm on it the resonant frequency of the suspension will get high enough to throw the arm right off the record. ... | |
| Hard Reading - Suggestions from a speaker maker Bsimpson, all those secrets have long been discovered. There are only differing approaches to the same problems. Magico uses aluminum and Wilson composites, some use no enclosure at all. Paper, beryllium or diamond. With the drivers available on t... | |
| Speaker upgrade question - Wilson vs Focal 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other. Blow yourself into a new dimension.SoundLabs. | |
| Bass management with stand alone preamps mike, the Trinnovs fan is dead silent. Very slow speed. It does tell you how much computing power they have in there. A Lot. To call it a preamp is an understatement. It is the best room control available at this point, it is digital bass manageme... |
